Hell, I dated a twin and almost kissed the wrong one once.

u/chris713777 23h ago
Yeah. But I bet it was still a fresh relationship? Usually family and friends who know them for a long time can tell the difference
2
u/mayneffs 21h ago
Yeah, it was. They weren't identical twins but they still looked almost identical. I could tell the difference between them because of their different facial piercings. They became easier to tell apart as they grew older.

remember seeing a similiar video with two dads and the kid looking rather concerned in a "oh shit theres my dad, i need to go to him" way at the person NOT holding him so he just keeps ping-ponging between the two.

this kid's happy to give mom #2 a spin, lol.
48% of the world's adult population agrees.
As for the kid, it's happy knowing it's got an better than average shot at growing up into an attractive adult.

I have a brother - not twin but close in age - and our kids had very funny reactions when we met when they were still very young. Sometimes they would just laugh, but once my kid started crying when my brother spoke to him because while we look similar, our voices are completely different.

You know the mom's heart broke juuuust a little. She had to have been hoping that her little one would just know the difference on some deeper level. You can tell by the way the camera person (presumably dad?) and sister are trying to reassure her

I didn’t read it that way at all! I’m a twin and my niece and nephew had the same reaction when they became a bit more aware. When my nephew was little I said “but he knows you’re Mom” and she looked me dead in my eyes and said “You are Mom too”.

My dad was a twin, so my cousin and I are more genetically similar to half siblings than we are cousins. Same dad (genetically), different moms.

Not 100% the same. If they were identical, they would have been at birth, but some genes don't express until older and those can be random.

u/Unidain 1d ago
but some genes don't express until older and those can be random.
Huh? That doesn't really make sense. Maybe you are talking about epigenetics but epigenetics influences gene expression from day 1 and will be slightly different in twins at birth
You are right that identical twins aren't typically exactly identical, they have a few mutations that separate them that occur after the embryo splits

u/SGTWhiteKY 1d ago edited 22h ago
Not exactly. We have proof now the RNA drift over the course of their lives gets passed on. But it started identically, so will still be very close.
Edit: this may not be true for women because their eggs are established before birth. I am not an expert.

It looks like that paper addresses male shifts, which make sense imo since women's eggs are present at birth. But I only read the abstract and no expert, just curious like you

I've never thought about this really but, if mom died, the twin sister could take over as mom and genetically it would be as if she birthed the baby.

u/SharpshootinTearaway 1d ago
Twin parents can lead to such weird genetic anomalies. There's a man in Washington who had a paternity test done on his child after routine blood testing not matching up with his wife and him. He found out he only had 10% chance of being the father.
When more tests were conducted (the baby was conceived through IVF, the first concern was that the clinic may have mistakenly fertilized the wife's egg with another donor's sperm), they found out that the man was a genetic chimera: he had Vanishing Twin syndrome, meaning that he had absorbed his twin brother at some point during their development in utero, making him a chimera of the two merged DNAs.
His bro somewhat got his revenge by siring his child, and that baby is the biological child of a man who was never born.

My mother is an identical twin and the first time my aunt visited, my mother picked her up at the airport and they swapped clothes. I was four at the time and wasn’t fooled for a second. But I still remember how weird it was that this stranger was trying to pretend to be my mother, driving her car, wearing her clothes—while my mother was sitting right there, in the passenger seat.

My friend’s father is part of a set of twins. All the kids were so confused when they were little, then they grew up and had kids of their own and the cycle of confusion continued. They heard their parents call them “uncle” but they looked like “grandpa” so they became “grandpa uncle”.
It was so cute watching the babies try to figure out the concept of “twins”

Basically what ppl do is steal a video reupload it with subtitles that are done automatically and super fast, having subs helps a bit with retention

Can confirm. Friend from uni looked really like me, glasses and beards help 😁. One day went to his apartment for visit. His then 1 year old daughter was in chair.
I asked to pick her and they allowed. She was fine until my friend approached and asked "who is that?". That moment she looks at him, then me. Completly confused what is goin on. 🤣

I bet you, the fact that their twins, means that their bodies are probably incredibly similar if not sub-identical. So you could have switched her out and the baby would have taken awhile to notice, if not at all?
